What is the difference between accessible, accessibilityLabel and accessibilityHint properties of Text component in react native? React native documentation is not enough to understand. Examples would be more appreciated.

          accessible - the flag set to true will enable the view or component to be an accessibility element that can be read by VoiceOver for people with disabilities.



          accessibilityLabel - When the VoiceOver goes over the accessibility element if there is no label given it will just read as a textfield, label or button. Instead you can make it read as "username field", "password field", "Login button" etc



          accessibilityHint - This is used to inform the user what will be the action performed on tapping or interacting with that UI element.



          For example if you've a "Login button" when the user clicks on it. You want to inform the user the action that will be performed after that some like - "When you tap on this login button. Your username and password will be validated and on successfull login you will be taken to the dashboard screen"



          Also please refer this section of the ReactNative documentation. It is very thorough with some code examples https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/accessibility.



          I hope this should help.
